Flecainide and weird vivid dreams

BWinAZ

I have recently been diagnosed with having Afib and my cardiologist prescribed Flecainide... I have been on the medication now for approx 2 months and I am having weird vivid dreams, nothing in the 'horror scary realm' but odd vivid stuff... I have checked various websites i.e. webMD etc and the Rx does not post a side effect of weird dreams. Is this common?
